I can live with the exorbitant salaries of major sports... as long as it is supported by the market. You get my tax dollars involved and I’m no longer a fan.

Nothing excites a local politician like the simulated view of the playing field in the new mega stadium from his/her freebie suite tickets.

Agreed. Let the billionaires pay for their own sports palaces so millionaires can play a game.

I was a diehard fan of the Seahawks but advocated and voted against building of a new stadium with government dollars. I hated the thought they would have left town and I wouldn’t be able to attend games, but voted against it anyway. The same goes for any PROFESSIONAL sports arenas. It makes sense to build them for Universities, as the money spent brings in revenue to the schools.

Now I see where the Buffalo team needs a new multi-billion dollar venue. I would again say no No a thousand times NO.
